The Hate U Give trailer left us both emotional and empowered

“Don’t never let nobody make you be quiet.” This is just one of the powerful quotes from the official trailer for "The Hate U Give," which was released over the weekend.

The movie, based off of Angie’s Thomas’s best-selling novel, is finally hitting theaters on October 19th. The movie illuminates a range of important issues surrounding the African American community such as police brutality, racism and the Black Lives Matter movement.

Amandla Stenberg shines as Starr Carter, a 16-year-old girl who is inspired to become a Black Lives Matter activist after a policeman kills her best friend, Khalil, played by Algee Smith. With pressure from the community, Starr must find her voice and stand up for what's right—no matter the cost.
